At Long Last, Success

He didn't try to persuade her to stay, even though having a girl with her would make her less lonely on the road. But with her "mother" there, he couldn't just force her to leave.

In the past two weeks, Little Flame Ji has grown quite a bit and seems to be close to advancing in rank.

This has nothing to do with luck or anything like that; it's entirely because her formula is never out of stock. She's a total little foodie, the kind who eats and sleeps all day.

Tang Miao initially thought he had gained a lot from his trip, but after feeding Flame Ji for several days, he realized that raising a daughter wasn't easy! Raising two would be an endless drain on his resources...

Sons are raised frugally, daughters are raised lavishly... Poor Little Black belongs to the frugally raised category, and it was practically the one who got around the whole way back. Thanks to Little Tiger, Tang Miao didn't encounter any trouble. Of course, even if they did, the other party would eventually become Remnant Soul and be absorbed by it.

Three days later... in the Magic Capital.

On his first day back in the city, Tang Miao exchanged everything he had collected for cash. He then prepared a month's worth of provisions for both Snow Woman and Flame Ji, and also purchased a Star River Vein!

He was eager to break through to the higher level of the Space Element! But since he had already used it, who knew if he could break through smoothly this time? So, it was better to have an extra copy of the Star River Vein. Most importantly, whether he used it or not, this thing had no expiration date, and its value wouldn't change.

In the end, he returned home laden with spoils, but only had less than 100 million yuan left in his hands...

It was already late at night when Tang Miao returned to her apartment.

When he opened the door and went inside, he saw Mu Nujiao cultivating, while Ai Tutu had disappeared off somewhere again. He, who had been listless, suddenly seemed to be fully revitalized!

Ai Tutu is not here...

Only him and Mu Nujiao...

Tang Miao licked her lips, and a strange thought popped into her head.

Mu Nujiao, who was meditating, seemed to sense someone entering the room and opened her eyes. At first, she thought it was Ai Tutu, but the footsteps were steady and powerful, clearly not Big Rabbit Rabbit!

Her beautiful eyes opened, and Tang Miao's face filled her vision... After a moment of stunned silence, Mu Nujiao hand to push him away, saying, "Tang Miao?"

Why are you back?

Seemingly finding this a bit awkward, Mu Nujiao added, "I heard from Zhao Manyan that you were training in Scorching Plains, weren't you?"

"You don't expect me to live there forever, do you?" Tang Miao said, his lips twitching slightly.

Upon hearing this, Mu Nujiao felt a little embarrassed... She knew that her question was somewhat strange... However, as soon as this guy returned, his possessive gaze swept over her without any attempt to conceal it, and Mu Nujiao couldn't take it anymore.

Especially since Ai Tutu went back to her hometown today, Mu Nujiao couldn't help but feel a little uneasy!

She likes him, but... it's still a bit inappropriate to say anything right now, isn't it?

However, before she could say anything, Tang Miao had already picked her up in his arms.

"Hey~ What are you doing~ Put me down!"

Looking at the shy canary in his arms, Tang Miao thought to himself, "It seems that the nourishing food I've taken these past two weeks won't have been wasted..."

Too lazy to waste words, talking at a time like this would only wear down one's will! Moreover, because of the unexpected disturbance last time, Tang Miao turned around and took Mu Nujiao upstairs this time.

After going upstairs, before Mu Nujiao could even speak, he forcefully sealed her soft lips with his... Having never tried anything before, Mu Nujiao was no match for this pervert. She quickly became dazed and confused.

"Oh~"

"Protection Umbrella ..."

Mu Nujiao's final reaction was these three words. As for what exactly these words meant, Tang Miao said he didn't quite understand.

~~~

"Beep beep beep..."

"Click!"

The next day, the alarm clock by the bedside rang for what seemed like the umpteenth time, but each time it was about to loudly wake the person in bed, it was immediately stopped by a large hand.

However, the hand that pressed the bell was clearly different from a typical fair and delicate hand.

After silencing the noise once again, Tang Miao turned over, buried her head in the soft, fluffy pillow, and went back to sleep.

But his movements eventually woke Mu Nujiao... After all, it was already eleven o'clock. Even if she was possibly damaged by plowing, she was, after all, a magician, whose physique far surpassed that of ordinary people, so her recovery would naturally be quite good.

When Mu Nujiao opened her eyes, she was still a little dazed... If it weren't for the lingering pain beneath her and the mess on the floor, she would have really thought she was dreaming...

Slowly pushing aside the guy who was sleeping like a log, Mu Nujiao crawled out. Whether the things on the ground were her favorites or not, they were no longer worth keeping... after all, they had already been torn and damaged...

"Rustle, rustle..."

Tang Miao had already opened his eyes when he was pushed away. However, he didn't say anything. After all, sometimes, the most beautiful scenery is the one we see unexpectedly.

"Jiaojiao ~"

After experiencing it for a while, Tang Miao finally spoke with a satisfied expression and softly called out.

Upon hearing this, Mu Nujiao was taken aback. When she realized Tang Miao had some other idea, she glared at him with great displeasure... This guy was simply going too far! It was already noon, and he still wanted to...?

Little did she know that Tang Miao hadn't experienced the feeling of victory in a long time. It was understandable that he was a little emotional.

He didn't know if it was because the food was so good in Scorching Plains, or what, but he felt like he was going to be that bull that never collapsed...

"Shameless!"

Just as Tang Miao was thinking and a lewd smile appeared on his face, Mu Nujiao spat lightly and then left.

The National Selection is almost here, and she could have cultivated all night last night, but instead, this scoundrel ruined everything. For Mu Nujiao now, time is the true meaning of life!

The door slammed shut with a click...

Tang Miao finally snapped out of her reverie. Looking at the tightly closed door, Tang Miao sighed helplessly, muttering to herself, "Sigh~ I finally found someone weaker, but they don't give me a chance to show my skills at all. It's so difficult."

"Buzzing~"

Just then, Tang Miao's phone vibrated slightly, which meant he had woken up. Otherwise, he would have ignored the sound, since it wasn't very loud.

Tang Miao picked up her phone and was completely stunned!

Because the caller was Tang Yue!

After confirming that Mu Nujiao was no longer upstairs, Tang Miao answered the phone, "Hey, Yueyue, did you miss me?"

"..."

"No, I just came back from Scorching Plains and I'm heading back now."

"..."

"Ah?"

Are you home?

"Then wait for me, I'll be right back!"

"..."

"It's nothing, it's nothing. Is nothing more important than my wife?"

"..."

"Stay home and wait for me, I'll be there soon... No, no, no need to pick me up, just wait at home, I have some good news for you when I get back!"

"..."

After hanging up the phone, Tang Miao was stunned for a moment. He hadn't expected that Tang Yue would arrive this morning when he had only returned last night.

And what's more, it happened right after I did something I hadn't done in a long time...? That's too much of a coincidence, isn't it?

However, he didn't have much time to think about it, after all, Tang Yue was waiting at home.
